Allen Control Systems has raised a $200M Series B led by Smash Capital, with participation from @craft_ventures, @rallyvc, and @InspiredCap.
Low-cost drones are reshaping modern conflict, and the demand for proven counter-drone defense is accelerating. This funding enables us to scale Bullfrog, the most trusted kinetic solution built for the U.S. military and allied partners worldwide.
We're hiring across manufacturing, engineering, and operations to scale the next generation of counter-drone defense.

In the words of President Trump last week, Bullfrog is "unbelievable."
It's now available for procurement on JIATF 401 CUAS Marketplace.

Last week, ACS announced the opening of an engineering office in Silicon Valley to strengthen our existing team of world-class engineers designing, building, and deploying mission-critical systems to defeat hostile drones.
If you are an electrical, software, or computer vision engineer, we have a job for you: allencontrolsystems.com/comp…

To build the Arsenal of Freedom, American companies must move fast—and move at scale.
Thankfully, the patriots of Austin, Texas, have answered the call.
AMERICAN WORKERS. AMERICAN MADE.

ACS is among 20 industry participants in Falcon Peak 26.2, a U.S. Northern Command and Joint Interagency Task Force 401 counter-drone experiment at Yuma Proving Ground targeting the complex challenges unique to the U.S. southern border.
The drone threat will continue to evolve, and ACS is ready to meet it.

This week marked a major expansion for ACS as we rapidly scale production of our Bullfrog autonomous weapon station with a new 191,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Austin, Texas.
The expansion reflects ACS's continued investment in building the domestic industrial capacity and skilled workforce required to produce next-generation defense systems at scale.
The drone threat isn't slowing down. Neither are we. This week we announced a new 191,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Austin, Texas to rapidly scale production of Bullfrog and meet the accelerating demand from U.S. and allied nations.
The U.S. and allied nations have sent us a clear message: they need Bullfrog to safeguard U.S. and allied forces and critical infrastructure from this omnipresent threat, now. We’re building the production capacity so Bullfrog is at the ready when and where it is needed most, and we’re proud to do our part to support the reindustrialization of American manufacturing in the process.

I'm glad you asked! Zero.
Because for environments where kinetic defeat isn't appropriate, we have other effectors to take down drones
Behold, from the @allencontrol systems Innovation Lab:

Statistically, how many collateral damage civilian casualties can be expected for every case of 7.62 ammo shot into the sky at drones?

Yep. You gotta be able to see'em to shoot'em even if they're evading radar detection.

Learning of the day: When FPV drones tilt 45 degrees forward, even high-end radar systems lose track of them. Makes sense since angled surfaces are also what stealth fighters use.

Without the ability to shoot them down on the move, everything from troop carriers to armor to humanitarian convoys are totally vulnerable to drones. You won't be able to even go outside in a full intensity conflict.

Russia published its own drone footage of the strike on a UN humanitarian convoy in Kherson on Thursday.

Even at night in pitch black, so far out it's not yet audible, a hostile drone on approach will still be spotted and destroyed by an ACS Bullfrog.
Look at how rapidly it identifies the threat, gets on target, and eliminates it:
